A 59-year-old man pleaded guilty Thursday to robbing a Chase bank branch in Burbank last winter.
Gregory Lynn Cross faces up to 20 years in federal prison for the Dec. 13 theft of $3,330 from the branch at 840 San Fernando Blvd., according to Assistant U.S. Attorney Justin Rhoades.
Cross was charged in Los Angeles federal court with also robbing $2,327 from the Chase branch at 3901 Atlantic Ave. in Long Beach on Dec. 18, and $2,150 on Dec. 22 from the Chase branch in Burbank he admitted hitting a week earlier. Those counts will be dismissed at sentencing.
Cross was arrested in January by Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies and turned over to the FBI, which had issued an arrest warrant.
U.S. District Judge Otis D. Wright II set sentencing for Aug. 10.
